Suspect shot by officer charged with domestic battery, strangulation

By Anna Skinner anna@youarecurrent.com Karmen Kristopher Parrish, who was shot July 21 by Noblesville Police Dept.

Sgt. Jordan Granger, has been POLICE charged with domestic battery and strangulation, both Level 6 felonies.

A probable cause affidavit obtained

by Current states that Parrish has been charged with domestic battery and strangulation. The affidavit states that Leslie Johnson, the victim, reported that Parrish, identified as a 41-year-old white male, placed both hands around her throat, lifted her up by her throat, threw her against a wall and punched her in the face with closed fists at approximately 3:30 a.m. July 21 in the 600 block of South Fifth St. in Noblesville.

The affidavit states that Johnson had signs of moderate bodily injury and substantial pain. Johnson is Parrish’s spouse, and there is a pending domestic relations case between the two that opened in December 2020.

A little less than two hours after the incident, the Noblesville Police Dept. responded to a call of unknown reason near 698 5th St. Noblesville Mayor Chris Jensen released a statement later that day claiming an individual with an active warrant resided at the residence. After police responded to the scene, they were unable to get a response

from anyone in the house. Then, officers heard yelling from the west. A press release from NPD stated the officers made contact with Parrish as he was walking back to the residence, and then Granger shot Parrish, although NPD has not said whether Parrish was armed or threatened the officers.

Granger, 35, is a 10-year veteran of NPD. He is assigned to the patrol division as a field supervisor and was working in that capacity when he shot Parrish, who was taken to IU Health Methodist Hospital in stable condition. NPD has not released an update on Parrish’s condition.

The Carmel Police Dept. is conducting a comprehensive investigation of the shooting and NPD is conducting an internal investigation regarding policies, procedures and if any disciplinary actions need to be taken.

Granger is on administrative duties pending the internal investigation. NPD Public Information Officer Sgt. Bruce Barnes said it is common for a department to request another department conduct a criminal investigation for shootings where a police officer is involved, but the decision is up to the individual department.

A Freedom of Information Act Request for Granger’s disciplinary records obtained

by Current showed that Granger was suspended for three days on March 15, 2019, for violation of the department’s oath of office and code of ethics for conducts unbecoming of an officer from incidents occurring Jan.

7, 2019, and Jan. 14, 2019. Citing an ongoing investigation, NPD declined Current’s FOIA request for Granger’s body camera footage from July 21.

Barnes said NPD couldn’t confirm whether Parrish was armed or approached Granger with a weapon. CPD is expected to release those details when it concludes its investigation. CPD has access to the body camera footage.

According to public court records, Parrish has several other pending active cases in Hamilton and Madison counties, including intimidation with a deadly weapon and driving while intoxicated.

Granger received a Medal of Valor in February 2019 from NPD following an incident in November 2018 when Granger and Master Patrolman Matthew Johnston responded to a motor vehicle crash in which a vehicle was 130 feet into a pond and beginning to sink. The air temperature that evening was 36 degrees and the water temperature was an estimated 40 degrees.

Both officers removed their duty gear and swam toward the vehicle. When they arrived, they broke the rear window and removed the driver. Fire department responders helped all three people back to shore.

They were transported to an area hospital to be treated for signs of hypothermia.

Granger was promoted to sergeant in 2017.

Prevail executive director resigns

By Anna Skinner anna@youarecurrent.com Prevail, a Noblesville-based nonprofit that serves victims of crime and abuse, has announced the COUNTY resignation of Executive Director Susan Ferguson’s resignation. Her last day was July 15.

A new executive director has yet to be named, but a Ferguson press release from Prevail said the search would begin immediately.

“It has been a pleasure to serve as Prevail’s Executive Director for the past eight years. This experience has provided endless opportunities for professional and personal

development. I have enjoyed working for the agency and appreciate the support provided to me during my tenure,” Ferguson stated.

The press release stated that Ferguson left the organization to “enjoy personal time and explore opportunities.”

Prevail Board Chair Liz Tate applauded Ferguson’s commitment to Prevail.

“We are so fortunate that Susan’s work has positioned us for a healthy future. We wish her continued success.”

– PREVAIL BOARD CHAIR LIZ TATE

“This is a highly demanding job and her commitment to Prevail for eight years is extraordinary,” Tate stated. “Additionally, we are coming out of a trying time for all nonprofits, and we are so fortunate that Susan’s work has positioned us for a healthy future. We wish her continued success.”

The COVID-19 pandemic led to an increase in deaths associated with domestic violence. In Hamilton County in 2020, eight deaths were associated with domestic violence compared to none the previous year. Prevail served 3,783 people in 2020, of which 80 percent were female.

Prevail and Hamilton County recently formed a partnership to construct a 20,000-square-foot family shelter in Hamilton County for victims of violence.

Noblesville Schools equips buses with stop-arm cameras

By Anna Skinner anna@youarecurrent.com Noblesville Schools is approximately halfway through equipping each of its buses with stop-arm cameras. The initiative is under way after the district comSAFETY pleted a trial to find a stop-arm camera that would provide the best information for prosecutors and police departments to issue citations for drivers violating bus stop laws.

Noblesville Schools Transportation Director Brian Zachery said the district chose the Gatekeeper Systems’ stop-arm camera. The district already used Gatekeeper Systems cameras for bus interiors.

Noblesville Schools joined Hamilton Southeastern Schools to conduct research during the 2019-20 school year.

“We met with police officers in Noblesville and Fishers as well as a representative from the prosecutor’s office because we wanted to make sure if we added technology, they would support that through writing tickets and then prosecution as far as when it got to traffic court,” Zachery said.

Zachery said numerous stop-arm violations are reported daily. When the prosecutor’s office and police departments said Gatekeeper Systems provided accurate information that could be used to prosecute a violation, the district equipped 12 of its 128 buses with the cameras. Now, approximately 60 of the buses have stop-arm cameras.

“Those were in the high-offender areas where we had the

busier roads, like 146th Street, State Road 32, State Road 38, areas where we have multiple violations reported,” Zachery said. “We started working with that technology and sending that information to the police department, who then in turn started writing citations based on that.”

The cameras cost $1,000 per bus.

“Buses are the safest way for students to get to school.

The unfortunate part is, the danger is getting on and off,” Zachery said.

Zachery said if a stop-arm camera records a violation and a police officer decides to issue a citation, the officer will deliver the citation in person to the violator.

Mercer hopes summer provides springboard for success

By Mark Ambrogi mark@youarecurrent.com Carmel High School senior tennis player Eli Mercer got a nice lift from his summer experience.

Mercer joined 2021 CHS graduate Jones McNamar and four other friends on a boys and girls team that won the World Team Tennis national title for 18 and under in Orlando at the United States Tennis Association campus. The Central Indiana team beat a California team in the final.

“It was special because we’ve all known each other since we were in second or third grade,” Mercer said. “We’ve played the same competition the last three years, and to finally make it to the top is really nice.”

In June, Mercer won the Central Indiana 18 and under boys singles title and advanced to the Midwest Section tournament.

Mercer said he is playing at a high level entering his final high school season.

Carmel tennis coach Bryan Hanan said Mercer is an exceptional leader for the younger players.

“He is a very hard worker and has really showed great improvement the last four

years,” Hanan said. “He puts the work in during the offseason and plays in a lot of tournaments, and that’s the reason for his success.”

Mercer finished 27-0 as a junior at No. 2 singles for the state champion Greyhounds (23-0).

“He also was the clinching point in the state finals and was the reason we won the state championship last year,” Hanan said.

Mercer’s three-set win was the difference

in a 3-2 victory over North Central in the state final.

Senior Broc Fletcher was the No. 1 singles player last season.

“I think it will be interesting to see Eli and Broc battle it out for the top spot,” Hanan said. “I think competition is a great thing and both those guys will be able to push one another to get better this year.

They are both really good friends and great competitors, but when it’s all said and done, whoever plays one singles they will still be the other one’s biggest cheerleader because just that’s how they both are. They are just great kids that come from great families.”

Mercer said his conditioning has improved since last season.

“I’m more fit and I’ve just grown a little bit,” he said. “My serve has gotten better.

I’m just trying to play smarter tennis. I’ve got smarter on the court from practicing with a lot of good players.”

Mercer said he expects the Greyhounds to contend for another state title.

“We still have four really good players returning and we have some good freshmen and sophomores,” he said. “I’m feeling confident we can get a sixth one in a row.”

Noblesville council approves mid-year budget adjustments

By Anna Skinner anna@youarecurrent.com The Noblesville Common Council unanimously approved seven items on the agenda at its July 27 meetGOVERNMENT ing relating to Mayor Chris Jensen’s mid-year budget adjustments.

CFO/City Controller Jeffrey Spalding said the 2021 budget was created during a time of uncertainty with the COVID-19 pandemic.

“Certain decisions regarding fiscal restraint were implemented in that budget,” Spalding said. “Some of the worst fears on revenue impacts didn’t occur, so certain items that were excluded have been brought forth by the mayor.”

The items in relation to the mid-year budget are: A NEW FIRE ENGINE The council approved an appropriation of $609,816 for the Noblesville Fire Dept. to purchase a new fire engine.

A NEW SAFE HAVEN BABY BOX The council approved an appropriation of $15,000 to install a Safe Haven Baby Box at Fire Station 71, 135 S. Ninth St. Council member Wil Hampton said an infant within 30 days of birth can be placed in the box anonymously if the guardian feels they cannot keep the baby. The box is climate controlled and sounds an alarm when a baby is placed in the box so the fire department can immediately respond.

A NEW DEPUTY CONTROLLER POSITION The council approved an appropriation of $61,200 to fund a deputy controller position. The position was added so the city

can “keep pace with increased accounting, financial reporting and internal control requirements that have emerged.” The deputy controller must be a certified public accountant.

NEW STREETLIGHTS ON 146TH STREET The council approved an appropriation of $1.3 million to replace streetlights on 146th Street from Cumberland Road to Bergen Boulevard. The ordinance states the existing streetlights are old and require expensive maintenance because of unavailable parts and components. When installed, Duke Energy will maintain the lights.

A DEESCALATION TRAINING ROOM FOR THE POLICE DEPARTMENT The council approved an appropriation of $172,000 to allow the Noblesville Police Dept. to purchase three screens to use as a deescalation training tool. It also allows the department to convert a portion of the basement in Noblesville City Hall into a training room.

PREMIUM PAY FOR ESSENTIAL WORKERS The council approved an appropriation of $860,000 the city recently received from the American Rescue Plan. The appropriation allows for extra pay of $2 per hour for certain hours worked by city employees during the COVID-19 pandemic.

A POLICE STATION ANNEX The council approved several appropriations of approximately $165,000 for the police department to lease space at 501 S. Ninth St. to provide more space for department personnel. The facility will be leased through the end of the year. Any additional lease agreements would need to be requested in the 2022 budget.

Prevail will present its annual Celebration of Hope event this month to raise money for its programs FUNDRAISER supporting survivors of crime and abuse, including sexual assault and domestic violence.

Prevail is a nonprofit based in Noblesville.

The gala will be from 6 to 11 p.m. Aug. 21 at the Renaissance Hotel in Carmel. Prevail has arranged for a survivor to speak at the event.

“It’s a celebration of our speaker that night, and (it’s) celebrating hope and empowerment for survivors and the support that the community gives them,” said Natasha Robinson, Prevail’s marketing and event coordinator.

Prevail emphasizes empowerment at the event because survivors and people close to them often feel their power has been stripped away, Robinson said.

“We like to focus on the positive outcomes and where they’re going to eventually get to,” Robinson said. “We walk on the journey with them.”

The fundraiser includes a silent auction, plated dinner and dancing to the live band Dave and Rae. Robinson said that in the past, the Celebration of Hope has generated nearly $200,000 for the organization.

Individual tickets are $175. The event is at capacity, but those interested can join the waiting list or make a direct donation on Prevail’s website at prevailinc.com.

BGCN’s Cornhole Tournament set

By Mark Ambrogi mark@youarecurrent.com Boys & Girls Club of Noblesville Sports Director Tony Eslamirad has watched as the organization’s cornhole FUNDRAISER tournament has continue to flourish.

The Boys & Girls Club of Noblesville’s Sixth Annual Cornhole Tournament, presented by the Indiana Army National Guard, is set to begin at 12:30 p.m. Aug. 6 at Forest Park in the shade of Shelter No. 1 in Noblesville.

“The event has been very popular over the years with an average of 60 teams in 2018 and 2019,” Eslamirad said of the club fundraiser. “We were able to have the event last year with the (COVID-19) pandemic. With it being outside and added safety measures, we were still able to put on the event and ended up with 51 teams.”

The first five tournaments have raised approximately $40,000.

“We do expect to have our best year yet,” Eslamirad said. “We have already set a best for sponsorships for the event and we hope to do the same with our teams. We hope to continue to grow and raise $12,000 after all of our expenses.”

Eslamirad said because all teams are guaranteed at least three games, the Toilet Bowl is completely separate from the winners’ bracket and losers’ bracket.

“If you lose your first game, you head to

the losers’ bracket and can win your way up back to the winners’ bracket if you continue to win,” Eslamirad said. “If you lose your first two games, you are placed in the Toilet Bowl where you can go on to win that specific bracket. Winner of that even gets a trophy of a toilet. The brackets can be a lot with 60-plus teams, and it being double elimination, along with the Toilet Bowl. At the end of the day, there are around 150 matches.”

Although it’s a family friendly event, Eslamirad said the majority of participants are 21 or older. Since most schools are in session, the majority of participants are adults and are allowed to bring their own beer.

“We do try to reach out to local businesses to see if their staff wants to participate, and hopefully, they’re able to enjoy a day off work and come play cornhole and network,” Eslamirad said.

Cash prizes are awarded for first and second place. Each participant receives a commemorative T-shirt, sponsored by HMC Screen Printing, and an entry into a door prize drawing. Multiple silent auction packages will be offered.

The registration fee for a team of two is $60, with all proceeds benefiting the Boys & Girls Club of Noblesville. Teams can register online at bgcni.org. Check-in begins at 11:30 a.m. For more, contact the Boys & Girls Club of Noblesville at 317-773-4372 or email teslamirad@bgcni.org.

• PVC and lead — A large number of school supplies are still manufactured with polyvinyl chloride (PVC), including backpacks, binders and organizers.

PVC can contain toxic chemicals such as phthalates and lead. Avoid buying items that have the recycling symbol with the number “3” or words “PVC” or “vinyl” on them.

• Choking hazards — Since many school supplies are “bite-sized,” they often prove tempting to our pets. Some of the most common choking hazards include erasers, glue sticks, crayons, markers, pencils, pens, pen caps and paperclips.

Always contact your local veterinarian if you suspect your pet has been exposed to anything hazardous.

On the other hand, certain types of high-strength glues, like the popular Gorilla Glue, can pose a large poisoning risk when ingested.

Lifelong construction worker finds relief from severe leg pain through vein procedure Credits care team at Ascension St. Vincent for going ‘out of their way’ to answer his questions and concerns Bruce Brosius began noticing varicose veins in his legs about 10 years ago. But he said it wasn’t until recently that they started to cause him severe pain.

His wife encouraged him to seek care. Bruce said an ultrasound at Ascension St. Vincent detected clotting in both of his legs.

“The clotting was causing me a great deal of pain and swelling,” said Bruce. “The clot was probably the size of a nickel in the side of my right leg, near my knee. It was hard to the touch and very tender.”

Bruce said he believes several factors may have led to the varicose veins in his legs, including being a reformed smoker, his genetics and his demanding construction job.

“I spend a lot of hours standing on my feet, wearing boots and carrying a tool belt,” Bruce said. “I’m doing high-impact work all day long.”

Bruce had a radiofrequency vein ablation procedure on his right leg at Ascension St. Vincent. This minimally invasive procedure uses heat created from radiofrequency waves, delivered through a small catheter, to close off the abnormal superficial veins that cause varicose veins. © Ascension 2021. All rights reserved.

“Vein problems run a broad spectrum, from unsightly cosmetic issues to significant health issues and disability,” said Richard Chitwood, MD, a vascular surgeon at Ascension St. Vincent. “Our team of vascular surgeons listens to each patient to determine the care plan for their particular issues and provide appropriate treatment.”

“If I would have known that this treatment was going to be so painless, and that I was going to meet so many wonderful people involved, I would have done this a long time ago.” — Bruce Brosius Bruce said the procedure was quick and simple, and relieved a large amount of pressure from his leg. He speaks highly of the care he received.

“The team at Ascension St. Vincent has gone out of their way to be respectful of my wishes and to listen to all my questions and concerns,” said Bruce. “I cannot say enough good things about them.”

Bruce Brosius, who has been a construction worker for over 40 years, had a minimally invasive procedure to relieve his leg pain.

Bruce said he will continue to see his care teams at Ascension St. Vincent for follow-up care and that he is looking forward to working and riding his bike without leg pain getting in the way.

“If I would have known that this treatment was going to be so painless, and that I was going to meet so many wonderful people involved, I would have done this a long time ago,” said Bruce.

Vascular specialists at Ascension St. Vincent provide a variety of innovative treatment options for men and women needing vascular care, from injection sclerotherapy for spider veins to minimally invasive venous ablation for varicose veins. When bulging leg veins are uncomfortable or when you want help adjusting vein-related skin discoloration, our care teams are ready to help.

Noblesville’s new stadium on target to be complete for 2022 track season

By Mark Ambrogi mark@youarecurrent.com As the high school football season is about to commence Aug. 20, the new Noblesville High School stadium is only a year away from its debut.

In fact, David Mundy, associate superintendent for Noblesville Schools, said the stadium is on target to be completed by March 2022, in time for the high school track season.

“The new stadium will host 6,000 people, 4,500 on the home side and 1,500 on the visitors’ side,” said Mundy, who oversees operations for the district. “We are right on pace if we can keep the weather the way it’s been. Our intention is the two practice fields will be completed by early August and ready to go. We are working on finishing the visitors stands and then the track will go in.”

Mundy noted that when the current football stadium, which holds 4,000, was built in 1969, Noblesville’s population was 12 percent of what it is today.

The two locker rooms and concession stands are on pace to be completed as well, Mundy said.

“We are fortunate in Noblesville (that) we have a great fan base,” Mundy said. “We have a great community that supports us. We want all our community members, our students, our middle school kids, and even the people outside the community, to be able to come to our games and enjoy themselves and be in an awesome situation to watch the game. When the crowds are there, it does affect our football team. We also have great crowds for track. This is going to accommodate larger crowds with more space to move about. We can accommodate the youth events and youth state championships we’re trying to host.”

Having the stadium right behind the high school is another benefit.

The current football stadium, Beaver Materials Field at the Swanson Sports Complex, will remain a district facility to accommodate lacrosse, band competitions and other uses.

“It will also be used for rentals and some for our youth teams,” Mundy said. “It will stay active.”

Besides the increase in seating, the new stadium will have expanded concessions and restrooms, enhanced LED lighting and updated broadcast technology capabilities.

Marnie Cooke, director of communications, said naming rights are being sought for the stadium.

“We also have other pieces of the stadium, naming locker rooms, naming concession stands and scoreboard sponsorships,” Cooke said.

The groundbreaking for the stadium was Sept. 15, 2020.

The Hagerman Group is managing construction of the $14 million project, which is funded through a bond. The architect is CSO Architects. Mundy said referendum dollars will

ELEMENTARY SCHOOLS EXPAND

A second-grade classroom in Noble Crossing Elementary School’s new wing.

Noblesville Schools recently completed an expansion of North Elementary, which was built in 1967. The added space will provide North students with adequate room for lunch, physical education and music programming, as well as restroom renovations.

“As the oldest and smallest school in the district, this space was desperately needed at North and will be a major enhancement in our school operations,” North Elementary Principal Rob Lugo said. “Our students can now take advantage of expanded athletic and music instruction, eat lunch in a timely manner and be together for school events, comparable to all the other students in our district. The renovations also create cost savings and efficiencies through updated restrooms and kitchen equipment.”

David Mundy, associate superintendent for Noblesville Schools, said the cafeteria needed to be larger to get students through in a timely manner.

“On the south side of the building is where we developed a new gymnasium and music room,” Mundy said.

The Noble Crossing Elementary expansion, which was completed in May, included a new southwest wing of six classrooms, a teacher workroom and an expanded cafeteria dining area.

“The new classroom wing allows us to continue to provide exceptional learning experiences for our growing

student population,” Noble Crossing Elementary Principal Pat Haney said. “Additionally, the expanded cafeteria means not just needed space for lunch, but room for enrichment programming and before/after school care as well.”

Mundy said growth on Noblesville’s west side has driven up enrollments in recent years at Noble Crossing and Hazel Dell elementary schools, creating the need for expansions to maintain appropriate class sizes and services.

The Hazel Dell Elementary expansion, which was completed in January, included two new classrooms and two new teacher workrooms. Renovations were made to office areas and the media center, nurse clinic and front office.

“We are now in pretty good shape in all of our buildings in terms of spacing in all of them,” Mundy said. “We do monitor that yearly. With being a growing district, we never know where new construction (for housing) might come in. Every four or five months, we do another numbers check.”

Earlier this summer, Mundy said the new maintenance storage facility at Cumberland Road and 191st Street and the soccer safety locker rooms were finished in the White River Soccer complex.

not be used and the funding will not increase the tax rate.

The bond being used to finance the stadium cannot be used to fund staff, programs or student needs, per state guidelines.

ESSAY

HUMOR

Singular views

Playing favorites

Commentary by Terry Anker “You are wrong, and I don’t want to hear what you think,” barked the domineering spouse to their beleaguered partner. Wouldn’t it make sense to consider what they say before determining disagreement with it? Wouldn’t it be more reasonable to have our views challenged openly than to rest insecurely in ignorance?

Indiana Congressman Jim Banks was recommended by his peers for appointment to a review commission.

Our nation’s capital is rife with such blue-ribbon panels, special committees, and double-secret boards. One can assume that they are designed to help our leaders gain insight into important or faddish matters and oil the rusty gears of government so that they might lurch forward. In this case, a wrench has fallen into the works. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi has broken tradition by blocking Banks from appointment. There are many, given the chance, who would do the same to her. Is it true that open discussion is dangerous in that it only obscures a predetermined truth? Or are we calling folks liars before they lie?

A commission is not required to determine the moment of sunrise. Still, there is much debate about whether we should awake before, at, or after it.

We all have our perspectives, perhaps firmly held, of when to emerge from slumber. So, how do we honor the views of those with whom we disagree? It is an alluring temptation to prevent those thoughts that don’t align from ever being heard. It is an alluring temptation to hold back that seat at the table. It is an alluring temptation to invite disingenuous compliance from those who will quiet their own beliefs to avoid expulsion.

But do we benefit from their exclusion or are we weakened by failure to seek challenge? Can we seek the truth if we already believe we know it?

People often ask which of our four heirs is my favorite. The expected response is, “I don’t have one,” and I suppose in the aggregate, that’s true.

But let’s be honest, on the daily, there is absolutely a podium placement for Most Loved Kid. And though it changes frequently, I’ve noticed the gold medal normally goes to whoever is in their happy place, typically when they are away from the expectations of established family roles.

To that point, last week’s Champion Child was our youngest, simply because I had the chance to spend time with just her. We traveled to Massachusetts for a few days to visit fancy colleges and geek out on American history (our reenactment of the Boston Massacre is sure to become legendary). It was amazing to me that once I got her on her own, she transformed into a totally different person. Instead of encountering an angsty teenager who constantly competes with her older brothers and verbally spars with her sister, I enjoyed a kind and caring young woman who is quite funny (she dramatically threw the “snowball” at my unsuspecting British soldier, beginning the aforementioned Boston Massacre reprisal).

Now that we’re back home again in Indiana, she’s returned to her usual MO of either hiding in her room, except for meals, or running off to hang with her besties. We communicate through eye-rolling, cold silence and incessant hurumphing, if we see her at all. It’s a struggle to remember that the girl with whom I’m occasionally interacting isn’t necessarily who she is.

Suffice it to say, she is no longer my reigning favorite. Congratulations Male Heir No. 2!

Peace out.

Remembering a close friend and public servant Commentary by Dick Wolfsie There will never be another Dr. Pat Keener. This dear friend of the Wolfsies passed away two weeks ago. Even HUMOR if her name is not familiar to you, her lifelong dedication to the health of this city — indeed the nation — should not be forgotten. Among a score of accomplishments, this dedicated pediatrician and neonatologist founded the Indianapolis Campaign for Healthy Babies back in 1989 that improved the dismal infant mortality rate in central Indiana. She also was the founder of the Safe Sitter Program, a national training initiative to teach teens how to be better babysitters. The program covers everything from whether it’s OK for sitters to raid the fridge to how to save a choking toddler.

For the past 40 years, Pat was resolute in finding appealing little snippets in magazines and newspapers, cutting them out and sending them to me via snail mail. I always looked forward to seeing what was in each next installment.

If it weren’t for Pat, I wouldn’t know that: • It is possible to lead a cow upstairs but not downstairs.

• A duck’s quack doesn’t echo, and no one knows why.

• The shape of a Pringle is a hyperbolic paraboloid.

Dr. Pat once mutilated a brand-new copy of the “New England Journal of Medicine” so she could send me an article saying babies are born with about 300 bones, but by the time they reach adulthood, these bones will have fused together to form 206 bones.

There is something about opening a ma-

nilla envelope fresh from the mailbox and having several pieces of a newspaper article (that was continued on three different pages) tumble out across the kitchen table and flutter to the floor. Just fitting it all together was always a challenge, and I must admit that I have probably read the parts in the wrong order more than once.

My mother also used to send me newspaper articles with references to people I knew from years earlier. She usually included a little note with each article: “Thought you’d want to see this. Wasn’t he a friend of yours?” Mom asked.

I know my mother’s heart was in the right place, but obituaries didn’t quite cheer me up the way Pat’s articles did. Pat read everything, so I always wanted to look smart when I was with her. One evening, she and her husband, Garry, were out to dinner with Mary Ellen and me. I tried to jazz up the conversation. “Pat, did you know that an ostrich’s eye is bigger than its brain?”

“I did,” she said. “I’m the one who sent you the article.”

There is so much about this incredible woman that I will miss. There was a wonderful write-up about her in the newspaper when she passed away. In her honor, I cut out the article … and mailed it to several of my friends.

How to create an IHP Commentary by Brenda McLean It’s back-to-school time again, which means excitement, new experiences and many unknowns. If BACK TO SCHOOL you’re the parent or caregiver of a student with a chronic medical condition, the unknowns can be scary, especially in this era of COVID-19. For students under the age of 12 and unable to receive a COVID-19 vaccine, parents may have real concerns and questions about their child’s health and safety in the school environment.

As a school counselor who works closely with kids with lifelong medical conditions, specifically rare bleeding and blood disorders, I’m often asked how I help families prepare ahead of the school year. Gathering the right information and communication with the school is key, especially during the pandemic: Talk to your student’s health care provider about a health plan: Share the school’s COVID-19 safety plan with your child’s health care provider. Ask your provider to provide a list in writing of your child’s medical needs, any requirements, restric-

tions or supports your child will need to safely participate to the fullest in the school environment.

Talk to your school nurse and administrators: Provide your school with a copy of the written plan from your child’s health care provider. Set up a meeting to collaborate with school staff to develop an Individualized Health Plan, or IHP, to support your child’s medical needs at school. Also, discuss the need for a Section 504 document or assessment for an Individualized Education Plan, or IEP, to support your child’s unique learning needs.

Talk to your student: Discuss this health plan with your student. Talk about why this plan is important. Let them share how they feel about it. Children do not like to feel different or singled out from their peers. Talk through ways to reduce this concern.

Noblesville-based SMC featured on national TV show

By Mark Ambrogi mark@youarecurrent.com Noblesville-based SMC Corp. is receiving some national television exposure.

“We are a global MANUFACTURING manufacturer of automation control and process components, so basically everything in the automation industry,” said Amanda Wease, the firm’s sales promotion supervisor.

“Tomorrow’s World Today” featured SMC’s sustainability in automation in an episode called “The Power of Air” on the Science Channel July 31 and Aug. 1 on the Discovery Channel. The show is available on Discovery GO app and Science Channel GO a week after airing.

SMC Corp. of America, which is located at 146th Street and Cumberland Road, has approximately 1,000 employees. The North American headquarters is a 2.6-millionsquare-foot campus with engineering, production, distribution center, customer service and administration.

“We are always hiring for production and warehouse, so we’re definitely growing,” Wease said.

John Halvorsen, a Noblesville resident and SMC’s director of marketing, said the show features some of the pneumatics integral to

manufacturing.

“We’re showcasing some of our new technology that helps our customers, other manufacturers, with their sustainability goals and achieving more sustainable automation,” Halvorsen said. “We’re showing a pneumatic cylinder that consumes one-half the compressed air of a standard conventional pneumatic actuator. We’re showing a vacuum generator that uses positive air pressure and converts it into a vacuum pressure to pick up and move objects for automated pickand-place applications. We’re also showing our wireless communication technology that allows control instructions to be provided from a base unit to multiple remote units wirelessly. You can send instructions to different automation components.”

Wease and Halvorsen were interviewed for the program.

“It gives us exposure for some of our new technology and how we’ve developed products with sustainability in mind,” Halvorsen said.

Halvorsen said the company is hiring in the Hamilton County area and is seeking production and warehouse employees.

“We are also hoping we can get some visibility for recruiting purposes,” Halvorsen said.

SMC has 26 sales offices in the United States and five in Canada.

DISPATCH Facility fee is hidden health care charge — Facility fees are one of the biggest rip-offs the hospital industry has ever come up with, according to Charles B. Inlander, a consumer advocate and health-care consultant based in Fogelsville, Pa.. Across the nation, consumers who go to “off-site” urgent-care centers or medical practices (they are not located on a hospital’s campus but are owned by the hospital entity) are being charged facility fees that in some cases are higher than the cost of care that was provided.

Hamilton County breweries strike gold

By Anna Skinner anna@youarecurrent.com Three Hamilton County breweries won big at the July 10 Indiana Brewers Cup. Grand Junction Brewing Co., BEER Westfield, won four medals and took home the Best of Show designation for its Mulligan Scottish Ale. Field Brewing, Westfield, won two gold medals. Primeval Brewing, Noblesville, won seven medals — one gold, four silver and two bronze. The seven medals tied Primeval Brewing with Metazoa Brewing Co. in Indianapolis for Brewery of the Year, but Metazoa won the distinction by virtue of receiving more gold medals than Primeval.

GJBC owner Jon Knight said the brewery has participated in the Indiana Brewers Cup for the past seven years and he was confident entering the competition that the brewery would do well. Winning Best of Show was a first-time accomplishment for the brewery.

Knight credits GJBC’s head brewer, Ryan Thomas, for the achievement.

“We have got a tremendous head brewer, and he has actually won medals in the past for us, and I think he’s really hitting his stride,” Knight said.

The competition had more than 500 entries. The Best of Show category pits gold medal-winning beers in 35 categories against each other. GJBC won a trophy and banner with the Best of Show designation and plans to display the items in the brewery.

Knight said the competition shows that breweries in Hamilton County strive to produce the best beers.

“When you’ve got 13 medals between three breweries 12 to 13 miles apart, that’s a pretty unique thing,” Knight said.

Field Brewing owner Jackie Dikos credits the brewery’s head brewer, Rian Umbach, for the brewery’s wins at the competition.

“Working with Rian has been amazing.

He definitely feels like part of our team and family for sure. He started with us

before we opened Field Brewing,” Dikos said. “I feel like what Rian’s creating is the backbone of who we are in Westfield and the type of beer we wanted to create.

Rian’s greatest strength is making beers approachable.”

Primeval Brewing co-owners Nathan Compton and Tim Palmer also serve as the brewers at Primeval. The brewery produces mainly European-inspired beer, drawing from Germany, Great Britain and Belgium.

Compton and Palmer have competed in the Indiana Brewers Cup as home brewers for several years, but this is the first year they competed as professionals.

Compton said although he didn’t expect to win so many medals, he was confident about his chances of winning something.

“It’s limited to 12 entries (per brewery), so in a competition of that size, to place in over 50 percent of your entries is certainly more than you could reasonably expect,” Compton said.

Compton described Primeval Brewing as “contrarian” in the craft beer world.

“The American craft beer scene has tended to push the envelope on bigger beers, hoppier beers, and beers more out there with creative additions,” Compton said. “We focus more on traditional styles, and we try to make them as best we can.”

Thomas said that’s his strategy at GJBC as well.

“I pride myself on not being a brewer that only brews IPAs or trying to figure out the next ridiculous thing I can put in a beer to sell as much as I can,” Thomas said.

Indy Opera regulars to perform at Lobster Palooza

By Mark Ambrogi mark@youarecurrent.com Indianapolis Opera veterans Daniel Narducci and Marci Jackson will FUNDRAISER display their musical theater talents at the 11th annual Lobster Palooza.

The Indianapolis Opera Narducci fundraiser is set for 5 to 9 p.m. Aug. 8 at Daniel’s Family Vineyard and Winery in McCordsville.

Jackson said they will start by singing four songs with a pianist and then perform a Nat King Cole song with the Dean Martini Band.

“It’s a little musical theater, a little Gershwin. It will be fun,” Jackson said. “Dean Martini has a ton of great songs. If they need background vocals, I might feel the need to pop in.”

Narducci said he has always performed in opera and musicals.

“I always cherish the opportunity to present the classic music theater,” said Narducci, who lives in Unionville. “I’ll be singing a Frank Wildhood song from the modern Broadway era. The Dean Martini band does a lot of ‘50s and ‘60s songs, kind of jazzy blues. The whole point is just to have a blast.”

This will be Narducci’s first time at Lobster PalooJackson za, which previously had been held in downtown Indianapolis.

Narducci appeared as King Arthur and Jackson was Guinevere in Indy Opera’s Camelot in March 2019.

Jackson, an Indianapolis resident, is eager to perform live again.

“This will be my first public performance since a recital in March 2020, just a week before the pandemic shut things down,” Jackson said.

Jackson attended Lobster Palooza a few years ago. For more, visit indyopera.org.

Front Porch Music Fest set

By Anna Skinner anna@youarecurrent.com When Noblesville resident Jason Pearson and his wife, Jessica, took a trip to Evansville for a weekend getaway and EVENT saw a front porch music festival, they thought downtown Noblesville would be a perfect fit for a similar event. The Front Porch Music Festival will be from 3 to 7:30 p.m. Aug. 7 on Logan Street between 10th and 14th streets. Logan Street will be blocked to vehicle traffic, making the event pedestrian friendly. Bands will perform on nine porches, with half of the bands performing throughout the first block and the last block of the street, with

the middle area reserved for food vendors.

Admission is free.

“Local businesses have sponsored the event to pay the musicians,” Pearson said.

“We want to make sure this is a free event, but the musicians aren’t donating their time. They’re sharing their talents and need to be compensated for that.”

The event is the first of its kind in Noblesville. Depending on turnout, Pearson would like to make it a biannual event.

Pearson said he chose Logan Street for the event because of its proximity to the courthouse square, the historic brick street and beautiful homes along the street.

Pearson said Noblesville resident Ken Bubp has been instrumental in planning the event.

Another favorite was the vegan stir fry ($20), which got extra points because not only was it vegan, it was delicious, with a colorful array of rainbow carrots, baby corn, water chestnuts, mushrooms, onions, bell peppers, zucchini, onions and spinach, all tossed in a spicy sweet ginger sauce and dotted with sesame seeds.

Holistic spelling of wholistic Commentary by Curtis Honeycutt

T. C. Steele State Historic Site, near Nashville, Ind. (Photos by Don Knebel)

Visiting T. C. Steele State Commentary by Don Knebel Continuing to focus on Hoosier historic sites, my 450th column is about Brown County’s T. C. Steele State HisTRAVEL toric Site.

Theodore Clement Steele, Indiana’s best-known artist, was born in Owen County in 1847. After studying at Munich’s Academy of Fine Arts, Steele and his family settled in Indianapolis, where he earned a living painting portraits for $500 (about $16,000 today). However, his passion was for plein air (outdoors) painting and his impressionist landscapes gained widespread acclaim. In 1907, he moved with Selma, his second wife, to the House of the Singing Winds, a studio/residence featuring high ceilings and porches he built on a remote hilltop 10 miles south of Nashville. He expanded the site and built a barn-like studio in 1916, where he displayed his works for visitors from across the nation. Steele frequently painted his woodlands and formal gardens Selma created on the property, but also traveled, painting from a horse-drawn wagon. Steele’s Brown County paintings drew other plein air artists to Nashville,

where they established an artist’s colony.

When Steele died in 1926, his ashes were buried on his property, marked by a stone proclaiming “Beauty Outlasts Everything.”

Selma, who was 23 years younger, maintained the property until just before her death in 1945, when she donated the entire 211 acres and 350 of Steele’s paintings to the state of Indiana. Today, the Indiana State Museum operates the site. A visitor’s center, opened in 2019, provides information about the Steeles and their property. The spectacular grounds, including hiking trails, a lily pond, Selma’s restored gardens and a replica of Steele’s studio wagon, are open to the public without charge. The House of the Singing Winds, furnished essentially as it was at Selma’s death, and Steele’s barn studio, displaying his works on a rotating basis, are available with a reservation and a modest fee at tcsteele.org/.

We all know the difference between a “whole” and a “hole.” Entire doughnuts and bagels have both! For most things, if they get a hole, GRAMMAR GUY they’re not whole.

Sure, this is a whole lot of “hole” talk, but right now it’s time to examine the difference between the words “holistic” and “wholistic.” Other than the “w,” what distinguishes these two words?

Holistic is an adjective describing the whole being greater than the sum of its parts. Clear as mud? And did you catch the word “whole” in the definition? I’m already confused.

That didn’t help too much, so let’s check the definition of “wholistic.” After arriving at its dictionary entry, I find a one-word definition: holistic. Thanks for clearing it up, dictionary.

The first usage of the word “holistic” was in the 1920s when South African statesman Jan Smuts used it in his book “Evolution and Holism.” As a side note, is “statesman” a job? If so, I’d like to know

presents

the starting salary.

The term “wholistic” actually came out of “holistic” after Mr. Smuts developed the idea of holism. In the past century, both words evolved to mean slightly different things (emphasis on “slightly”).

The words get used interchangeably, but there is a more precise distinction: The term “wholistic” gets used to underscore the totality of something — the whole thing. When someone uses “holistic” (especially in therapeutic fields), they are likely emphasizing the interaction and interdependency of the parts.

Still, other jargon juggernauts insist “wholistic” is merely a misspelling of “holistic” and do not recommend anyone use the “w” spelling.

If you do decide to pick one over the other, opt for holistic.
